Writing your own words, feeling the texture of the paper, offering it, sharing it, framing it if you wish and use the bookmark in the act reading physical books. An experience of the senses, a sensual return to the liveliness of the incarnated experience 🌍💙 One of Mokusho’s favorite books: J.R.R. Tolkien’s trilogy “The Lord of the Rings”
